It's early Christmas morning here at our house and I just wanted to take a minute and say Merry Christmas. Whether you are lucky enough to have the day off and get to spend it with your family, or if you are working a shift (or two) in one of the prisons, jails, or correctional centers around the world. I just wanted to remind you that what you do is appreciated.
I spent many Christmas and other holidays working inside, and despite everything, I do have some good memories of those times. Maybe the inmates would try a little harder, or maybe the staff was in a better mood, or maybe everybody was just a little distracted by the decorations, or the change in schedules for the holidays. Whatever the reason, holidays tended to be a pretty good day to work in a prison…as good days go anyway.
